Waiting Lyrics

i look towards the mountains
fly away in a dream of past time thoughts
filling up with your presence i realize
it's been awhile since we've just talked
breaking into my heart, you touched me
holding me in your arms, you heal me
showing me your love i don't deserve
but sure that i wish you'd wait
it's not fair, but you wait
wait, and you still haven't given up on me

i hear knocking at my door
i need you but i ignore
you stand by here caring and waiting for me
i'm still trying to be a man i'll never be
breaking into my heart, you touched me
holding me in your arms, you heal me
showing me your love i don't deserve
but sure that i wish you'd wait
it's not fair, but you wait
wait and you still haven't given up on me

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
